GE IS200EGDMH Data Module
GE IS200EGDMH
The GE IS200EGDMH is an Ethernet Global Data Module within General Electric (GE)’s Mark VIe Speedtronic™ series, specifically designed for distributed control systems (DCS) of large rotating machinery such as gas turbines and steam turbines. Serving as a high-speed data exchange hub, this module enables real-time data sharing between Mark VIe controllers and other intelligent devices (e.g., other Mark VIe racks, HMIs, third-party PLCs), ensuring low-latency transmission of control commands and status information.
Core Values of IS200EGDMH
- High-Speed Data Synchronization: Achieves microsecond-level data exchange via the Ethernet Global Data (EGD) protocol.
- System Scalability: Supports multi-module cascading to build large-scale distributed control networks.
- Redundant Reliability: Offers optional redundant configurations to prevent system downtime caused by single-point failures.

Structure and Composition
The IS200EGDMH adopts a modular industrial design, with key components including:
- Ethernet Controller: A dedicated ASIC chip that processes the EGD protocol stack and UDP/IP packet encapsulation.
- Dual-Port Switch: Supports ring network topologies (HSR/PRP) for redundant communication.
- Memory Buffer: Static RAM for storing real-time data, ensuring high-speed read/write operations.
- Backplane Interface: A high-speed connector that interacts with the Mark VIe backplane to access controller data.
- Status Indicators: LEDs for displaying power (PWR), network activity (ACT), and fault (FLT) status.
- Metal Enclosure: Provides EMI shielding and mechanical protection, complying with industrial anti-vibration standards.
Key Features and Advantages
1. High-Performance Data Exchange
- ≤1ms data update cycle, meeting real-time control requirements (e.g., governor command transmission).
- Support for Gigabit Ethernet, ensuring sufficient bandwidth to avoid network congestion.
2. Seamless System Integration
- Natively compatible with Mark VIe controllers (e.g., IS200ERMG), eliminating the need for additional protocol conversion.
- Easy configuration of EGD data tables (producer/consumer model) via ToolboxST software.
3. High-Reliability Network
- Dual-network port redundancy supports HSR/PRP ring networks, with a self-healing time of ≤50ms in case of single-point failures.
- The EGD protocol provides data integrity verification (CRC32) to prevent transmission errors.
4. Industrial-Grade Durability
- Wide operating temperature range (-20°C to +70°C), adapting to the environment of power plant control cabinets.
- Complies with the IEC 60068 vibration standard (5g @ 100Hz).
Application Fields
The IS200EGDMH is primarily used in the following scenarios:
- Power Generation Industry: Data synchronization between multi-rack control systems for gas turbines (e.g., fuel control and vibration monitoring).
- Oil and Gas Industry: Distributed I/O networks for compressor stations (e.g., remote valve island status collection).
- Industrial Drives: Multi-PLC collaborative control for large production lines (e.g., steel rolling mills).
Typical Application Case
In a combined-cycle power plant, the IS200EGDMH broadcasts speed signals from the gas turbine Mark VIe rack to the heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) control system via EGD, enabling rapid load adjustment of the steam turbine.
Related Products
- IS200ERMG: Mark VIe main controller (used in conjunction with the IS200EGDMH).
- IS200STCCH2A: Speed control module (data producer).
- DS200TBCAG1AAA: Terminal board (signal interface unit).
Installation and Maintenance
Installation Key Points
- Perform operations with power off (or confirm the system supports hot swapping), and wear an anti-static wristband.
- Use CAT5e or higher shielded cables for RJ45 network cables to avoid electromagnetic interference (EMI).
- A network manager (usually served by the controller) must be configured for ring network topologies.
Maintenance Recommendations
- Regularly check the network load rate (monitored via ToolboxST; recommended load rate <60%).
- Clean the module’s heat dissipation surface to ensure effective heat dissipation.
